Line feed is not respected in cells

[rmattler]

Text with line breaks is not show in the cell.

Code: String s = "Policies \n and \n Proc, ";

y = lp.putRow(pMargin, y, Cell.of(headingCell20, colWidths[0], heading20, s));

I'm expecting:

Policies and Procs

Instead I get:

Policies and Proc

Is this intentional or a bug?

You can split your input string on the \n so that "Policies\n and\n Procs" becomes ["Policies", "and", "Procs"] and pass that array to cb.add(). Or perhaps something like:

StringTokenizer sT = new StringTokenizer("Policies\n and\n Procs");
CellBuilder cb = n.cellBuilder().align(TOP_LEFT);
while (sT.hasMoreTokens()) { 
    cb.add(sT.nextToken());
}
cb.buildCell()

I think that recognizing \n internally would be a great new feature.

I appreciate the fast response. Your suggestion solved my problem. But recognizing the \n internally would be better because the work around leaves spaces between the lines because of the line padding. Which isn't a problem in my case.

Thanks again for you help and PdfLayoutManager.
